Founder and creator
Children's mental health educator and clinical psychology researcher
I created Healthy Little Minds to make emotional learning easier to begin: through stories children understand, practical resources adults can use, and research-informed support that connects home, classroom and clinical insight.
Children often need simple language for emotions before they can ask for help. Healthy Little Minds transforms emotional and behavioral concepts into friendly books, worksheets, calming tools and family guidance.
The aim is practical: make emotionally safe conversations easier to start, at home and at school.
I combine clinical psychology training, structured research and creative educational design to make resources that feel warm, useful and age-appropriate.
